Arnold Dallimore's definitive two-volume life of Whitefield, complete. The standard biography of the preacher at the centre of the Great Awakening. Read more.
This two-volume set, supplied complete, is Arnold A. Dallimore's full-length life of George Whitefield, the result of decades of research. It follows Whitefield from his conversion at Oxford among the Holy Club, through the open-air preaching that drew crowds of thousands in England, Wales, Scotland and the American colonies, his part in the Great Awakening, his labours for the Georgia orphanage, his disagreement with Wesley over election, and his death at Newburyport in 1770.
Dallimore's biography is the standard work and is unlikely to be displaced. The set suits pastors, students of revival and church history, and readers who know Whitefield only as a name. Please note this listing is for both volumes together rather than a single volume.
